So I think this is my fourth night off Lexapro 5mg. I quit it because I’m trying to sort out what is making me feel constantly hungry. I have an office job and I’ve gained like almost 10 pounds since August. It was honestly making me sad. I used to love looking at my body in the mirror. So good news I’m not insanely ravenous anymore, but yep I’m feeling irritable as all hell, crying right now a little. Maybe not the best time to quit cold turkey since I’m already stressed about buying my first house. Okay, the point of this long rant is how long does it take to quit feeling like shit and having a hard time sleeping after you quit? I take Prazosin but even it isn’t keeping me asleep very well anymore.

Edit: I know I’m a dumbass for quitting a depression med cold turkey since it sucked when I did it as a teenager. I just want someone to tell me there’s a light at the end of this tunnel.
